Content Assistant

The Content Assistant provides a suite of tools to improve existing content directly within your WordPress admin area. You can bulk update posts, generate new titles and excerpts from the posts list, and process text directly within the post editor.

Activation​

The Content Assistant is a free add-on that must be activated first.

  1. Navigate to AIP > Add-ons.
  2. Find the Content Assistant addon and click Activate.

Once activated, three new features become available across your Posts, Pages, and Products list screens and editors.

Content Assistant​

This feature allows you to update multiple posts at once using a configuration tool.

  1. Go to your Posts, Pages, or Products list.
  2. Select the checkboxes next to the items you want to update.
  3. Click the Content Assistant button at the top of the list.

This opens the Content Assistant modal to configure AI updates.

  • Templates: Save and load your entire configuration as a template for quick reuse.
  • AI: Choose the AI Provider and Model, and adjust Temperature and Max Tokens.
  • Context: Optionally use a Vector Store to provide your knowledge base as context.
  • Prompts: Check each field to update (Title, Excerpt, Content, Tags, Meta Description, Focus Keyword). For each, write a custom prompt. Use placeholders like {original_title}, {original_content}, and {original_focus_keyword} to reference existing data.

Click Start to begin. The modal displays a live log for each post.

Tip: Available placeholders include {original_title}, {original_content}, {original_excerpt}, {original_meta_description}, {original_focus_keyword}, {original_tags}, {categories}.
For Products, see the WooCommerce Product Writer docs for product placeholders.
